Experience description

The Irish Whiskey Museum in Dublin is one of the city’s most popular attractions, tracing the history of whiskey from its ancient roots to modern day. This interactive tasting tour is an essential Dublin gift experience for anyone that likes a drop of the hard stuff and would like to know more about how it’s made. Entertaining and enthusiastic guides lead you through the origins of whiskey with stories to savour. You’ll see a superb collection of memorabilia dating back to the 1800s, learn how whiskey rose to global prominence, then fell out of favour only to rise again, and much more.

Once you’ve explored the museum, it’s time to put your knowledge to the test. At the modern tasting bar, you’ll relax with a master blender over a selection of four different whiskies, with the opportunity to craft your own unique drink that you’ll take home in a personalised miniature bottle for a keepsake. Or you could just finish it off over dinner the same evening. But one thing is for sure, this whiskey-tasting tour in Dublin will provide a fun, informative and memorable couple of hours.
